Take The Reins Lyrics - Mike & The Mechanics

I'm a man, don't you forget it, I'm not a little kid 

Understand, you might regret it, treating me the way you did 

Hey old man, shut your mouth and listen, this here's the new regime 

I command, you could go missin', you could be off the scene 

(I'm not here to pray) I'm not here to pray 

(So papa don't say) so papa don't say, I'm not ready 

Cos the hands feel so steady, take the reins 

We got a team, we got the muscle, when things are getting tight 

Will there seem, if there's a hustle, money changes every fight? 

Look at me, you will discover, I'm not my father's son 

You will see, when you recover, I'm mama's only one

(Look straight in my eye) look me in the eye 

(Try to deny) try to deny, I'm not ready 

But these hands feel so sturdy, oh, take the reins 

(Take the reins) 

(I'm sure in your game) I know that in your game 

(You were okay) you were okay, that's behind us 

Oh, Louise, is it vengeless? 

Oh, take the reins

I'm a man, I'm not a little kid 

Why, I understand 

Shut your mouth and listen 

Ah, and don't work out a new regime 

Yeah, I got a team 

Yeah, take the reins 

I'm mama's only one 

Ah, take the reins
